Ever wonder what Jay-Z would be doing if he wasn’t rapping or serving as “El Presidente” of Def Jam? Nick Cannon and the rest of the crew of MTV’s sketch comedy show “Nick Cannon Presents: Short Circuitz” think Hovito would assume the role of Doctor Carter and perform breast exams on his nurses and rap through surgeries! It sounds a bit off but makes for some interesting sketch comedy. Watch the clip above! The second season of Short Circuitz hits MTV on June 7th at 10 pm et/pt but you can definitely get in on the action now. If you think you can do better than the clip you just watched, go to ShortCircuitz.tv and upload your own short. Send in your parody of a TV show, a commercial, or a music video. Each week, the top 3 will air on the show and earn the creators $1000 each! Why not try this?

The second single off of Ne-Yo’s new album, “Because of You” is out! The video for “Do You” premiered last night on BET’s Access Granted. I’m very excited that he chose this as the second single - it’s one of my favorites! You can also check out his new video with Fabolous - “Make Me Better” after the cut! CONTINUE READING

Ahh, so this is the song with Pharrell and Twista… We posted some photos of them on the set of the video for it a few days ago. Anyhow, I’m no music reviewer (Lol), but I know what I like and what I don’t like. And I can’t say that I’m really feeling this joint. It’s VERY repetitive … and I hate songs that are overly repetitive. The beat’s fresh though. Maybe the video with that sexy model Lola will change my mind ;-) Or maybe it’ll just grow on me…

My homeboi T.I. is featured on the cover of the latest issue of XXL magazine (July 2007). The 3-page article is titled “I’m Real, What Are You?” and features a picture of T.I. squarin’ off with TIP. It’s a pretty good read, you should check it out! CONTINUE READING

 

Just a heads up that BET’s Access Granted and Yahoo.com will both premiere Eve’s new video for “Tambourine” tomorrow (05.24) at 8pm EST (5pm PST)! Make sure you check it out! Judging from these photos, it looks like it’s gonna be a hot video!

   

…17-year old Jordin Sparks from Glendale, Arizona! Congratz! I didn’t really watch this season (this shit gets more boring every year) but I did catch a few episodes and homegirl can sang! Not to mention she’s pretty easy on the eyes ;-) One person that almost stole her thunder though, was Ms. Paula “I be on that KRYPTONITE” Abdul! Did y’all catch how drunk she was tonight?? From beginning to end, you could tell she was a little bit no, a LOTTA BIT tipsy! Someone has got to Youtube her “performance” at the end of the show when Jordin won. I mean, she (Paula) was really crying!

Again, please bear with me this next week. We’ve been a little slack on the updates, but I only have one more week of school, then I’m out for the summer … Thanks so much for understanding and continuing to visit! Here are some of the things we missed out on…

Above is the OFFICIAL cover (Nah Right) to 50 Cent’s third studio LP, Curtis, due out June 26th. So please stop it people with the 50 Cent Stealing Benzino’s Album Cover mambo jumbo. But anyway, I like it - it’s hot! AND DON’T EVEN SAY WHAT I THINK YA’LL ARE GONNA SAY!! Lol, leave Fiddy alone. In other news 50 Cent recently spoke with MTV News about “beef” with Cam’Ron, here’s what he had to say…

For a person to think that calling you the name your mom gave you at birth is disrespectful is beyond belief. He’s punished himself more than I can punish him. He’s made a fool of himself. There’s nobody asking me about Cam’ron. … I think people lost interest in it, based on the situation. He’s not even relevant. You’re talking about a guy who sold 270,000 [copies] his last record. I sold 9.8 million my last record. I’m not going to exhaust my audience by talking about somebody they have no interest in.

Daaaamn! LMFAO!!!

Aye, thanks to Koriee for the heads up on this chick. Tynisha Keli is the frickin’ truth, just by hearing “Let It Go” I knew automatically I was diggin’ her. She is currently working on her debut album, Even If It Takes Forever, due out sometime later this year. It was confirmed that Tynisha’s official first single will be “I Wish You Loved Me” (Myspace). The single will debut on radio stations in the U.S. on May 24, 2007 (tomorrow!). Tynisha will also be shooting a music video for this song! Below are some old songs from Tynisha that blew her up on the Myspace game, similar to Cassie’s story. Fun Fact: difference is one of these young ladies can actually sing (I’ll let you figure out the one I’m referring to.) She recently took all of these vocally amazing songs OFF her myspace ugh! Lol… I heard because that was the past and now her label is now starting to push her a little more now because again of her myspace success, but let’s hope she gets marketed properly- Warner Brothers is whack- their last artist was Paris Hilton. No comment. Switch labels girl! Your voice is too extraordinary to waste like that.

….Yup! New Black Eyed Peas track entitled, “More”! The song is from the new Pepsi Campaign project, I love the song it’s a nice melodic track with a little street edge, but I don’t think it’s necessarily “single worthy” in my opinion- but I hear this is strictly for the Pepsi Campaign and will probably not be included in the rumored titled album, From Roots To Fruits, so I sigh a pleasant relief. In the meantime you all can check out Pepsi More for more information and to watch trailers, download wallpaper and a whole lot of other stuff…
